Seen this on an older post. Did Clays truck first, then mine.




This is the 1"x1/8" pice of flat stock I used to support the antennea. Solid as a rock.


Finnaly got my pre-filter in. Not happy with the bracket, but it was hot, and I was lazy. I'll build something better later.....

 

Nice job, Jeff!

 

Thanks Scott.

 

Looking good! That is one clean install on the antenna.

 

Thanks Andrew, that's why I liked it so much, almost looks factory! I got the idea from 1975StroppeBaja.

 

Nice work Jeff. Looks real clean.

 

Is it in your face or does the A pillar hide it some?

 

It's hiding pretty good behind the A-pillar. It in no way obstructs my view.
This is me holding the camera up where my face normally is.

 

Jeff,
Swing by my place and we can take care of that bracket....on my truck of course

 

Pat all you have to do is show up, and get hooked up!

 

Looks good buddy! I was sold as soon as you sent me the thread link last week.

Is that the Firestik you told me about? Is that a 4' or 5'?

I'm also looking hard at different single din size CB's to mount in the dash like you suggested from that same thread.

I plan on making a new thread asking for input once RRE is finished and most of the guys are home.

 

Nice work Jeff. I did not do the pinion seal today...had to hunt down a new handle for the passenger door. Someone thought they needed my truck more than I did.

 

That sucks Tom. Guess we might be doing it at Marks' then.
Stewart, that's a 4' Firestik II.

 

Thanks for the pic! That's not bad at all, I have my gauges there too. Hell I even have the AC gauge in the same vent, Haha. Thanks again.

 

Here's the grocery list for the pre-filter:

Baldwin filter base part number- FB1311

Baldwin filter part number- BF1212

I picked up the fittings at my local hydraulic shop. I believe they are 6an. I ran 3/8 hose from my tank to my pump many moons ago on the advice from Dan (kwikordead) I believe.
